Hi, I also purchased a 2nd hand bebecar raider at from Craigslist. I didn't use it everday as it's for when my little comes to visit (we like going to the beach!). When I bought it, I was shown how to fold it and it looked easy. However, after getting it home, it became very hard to fold-you really had to "jam it" down. I decided to re-sell it and take it to a consignment store. They have the same problems with it and want me to take it back. I'm thinking of giving it to somewhere/someone who could use it and store it upright in their garage.

However, if there is a way to fix the folding mechanism, please let me know!

Hi all.....
I have one of these and its pretty easy to fold down once you get the hang of it but your all not doing it properly!!
Kelvid123 yes your right but whilst pushing in the red button and turning the handle towards the floor you also have to pull up the plastic clip on the right of the handle where the ''black handle bit finishes'' Hope this helps your all :)

P.s When folding the pram backup please ensure that this clip then clicks back into place else you'll find you'll be pushing your little one around and it may suddenly start to fold down on its own!

Hi, I have just bought second hand the exact same pram. You have to push in the red button in the middle of the handle, then turn the handle down towards the floor. By putting a little pressure on it it should now start to fold down. Hope this helps.

I have my own dilemma though. When the carry cot is on as a forward facing pram, does the seat unit come off that you use for the buggy?
